I am going through the barn now, can list a few things with photos later. 5/4/24 We started loading the truck and trailer, doors of the 1008, some cab wiring,battery trays W/hold downs. Also most if not all my Military radio stuff including EE-8 field phones. A small mil generator and some civy ones. I have added some powered respirators and other hazmat stuff. I'll be setting up Thursday on space 577-578. And a new set of tire chains 11:00/22.5 +other sizes

I have a new manufacture HT3B turbo, two NTC400 intercoolers w/ crossover piping, and 2x ntc400 exhaust manifolds if anyone is looking.

In search of an S280 shelter.

Headed that way. Can bring old style heavy tow bar (non telescoping and not the M88 one), McKISSIK 1" sheeve snatch blocks, 3/4" single sheeve snatch blocks - with hook, shelving brackets for "AAR Mobility ISU 90" storage containers, transfer lever extensions for split shifting M816 etc.

I hope someone will be bringing "snausages" for a toast to honour the memory of Dave (MWMules).

Is anyone coming to Findlay from out east? Ideally around pa that can pick up and bring a 5 ton gasser truck fuel tank from eastern equipment? Looking for a cheaper shipping option. I checked with eastern and they're not going to be able to make the show

I'm coming along I 90 through NY. Eastern is South of me the full height of PA. Not sure if a hook up can happen - shame, I saw Dave and Bill at Sussex.

Any chance one of those intercoolers will work in front of our m939 radiators? If so I’d be very interested!

Anyone have any troop seats for a 5 ton dropside or m35? Preferable nice, green fiberglass, but would even consider a “junk or rotten” set just for the hardware.

Will be looking for you on Thursday on the CUCV stuff. I'm in the covered shed and will have a m1028 and GPW with 37MM M3A1 gun.
